A slim, stiff, light­weight, super strong pole - more than a match for com­mer­cial fishery carp!

This seven-section pole, com­plete with revers­ible mini exten­sion, is 9.5m straight from the bag and needs no cutting back to accept Drennan's largest 5.4mm Super Slick internal PTFE bushes. It is ideal when used in conjunc­tion with thick, hollow elastic such as Drennan's pop­ular pink 14–16 and red 18–20 Carp Bungee.

The spe­cial Margin Kits sup­plied measure 2.33m and are designed to be shorter than the 2.89m kits sup­plied with the Acolyte and Acolyte Carp poles, as Drennan believe it is the optimum length for more demanding, close-range work. Having a shorter length of elastic offers you much more con­trol over a big fish, which can be really important when tack­ling snaggy swims.

One of the Margin Kits also comes with a spe­cial Ghost Tip as part of the standard package. These tips have been spe­cially treated with a light grey paint finish. This has been designed for ultra wary fish that could potentially be spooked by a carbon pole tip waving over their heads. As this spe­cial finish only adds approximately 2g of extra weight to the sec­tion, the bal­ance and per­form­ance of the pole is not compromised.

The standard package comes with a total of two Margin Kits and one Ghost Margin Kit but, as with all Drennan poles, you can tailor this to your own requirements. Each kit comes with their factory-fitted Side Pull Slots as standard and is also sup­plied with Roller Cones for unri­valled, super-smooth elastic performance.

The pole comes with plenty of extras, including two Skid Bungs, six 5.4mm Super Slick PTFE Bushes, six inter­me­diate PTFE Bushes, three Roller Cones, an extractor rod, nine Side Pull Beads, an EVA nose cone for the No3 sec­tion, a Cupping Kit Adapter and a Polemaster Pole Pot.

A 6.4mm Cupping Kit Adaptor thread is sup­plied should you wish to con­vert one of the tips to a cup­ping kit. This will ensure both your top kits and cup­ping kit are the same length for accurate potting.

The Acolyte Margin Carp is built on the same man­drel as Drennan's award-winning Acolyte Carp pole, but is even stronger. That means the top kits and sec­tions three to seven can poten­tially inter­change between these two poles, making it a great com­pli­mentary pole or backup pole at a sig­ni­fic­antly reduced cost. This is easily Drennan's best ever short-range carp pole and more than a match for margin-feeding carp!
